Chapter 487 Above the Posa (22) (1st + 2nd + 3rd) [VIP]
Zhaoying held his forehead with his hand, unable to bear to look down.
Wen Qi is still too naive. Scarao just said "substitute" and nothing else, so how could she give away all her secrets right away?
If it was an old hand who replaced him, with just the ambiguous word "stand-in", there would be a lot that could be done, and he would inevitably have to fight with Skao for more than a dozen rounds in this stage.
But maybe Scarao was just bullying the younger girl because she was young, so he suddenly dropped this bombshell to scare Wen Qi so much that she had no time to think about how to hide it.
Zhao Yinglai thought for a moment and looked at Wen Qi with pity.
Poor child, he will be sold by Skao next.
Bai Jinshu glanced at her, and Zhao Yinglai immediately put away the pity on his puppet face, and changed his expression before Wen Qi looked up, and asked cooperatively: "So you went to find a place to be a substitute this afternoon? How did you find it?"
What Wen Qi meant by this seems to be that not everyone who comes to the "other world" to look for a substitute can find that place. Just like there is a certain success rate for entering here, there is also a certain probability for finding a substitute.
The ones who successfully found substitutes were the strange death row inmates who only appeared once every few months, while many more who were not found, or who discovered that this was the underworld, were left here forever, becoming inexplicable missing cases, or fugitives who disappeared after escaping and have never been caught.
The losers disappear silently, and only the winners can walk out of here, spread the news that they have successfully left, and lure more people in.
It is estimated that the success rate of finding a substitute here and bringing him out is extremely low, so it is only worth trying if you are really in desperate situation.
Now Wen Qi is also here. I don’t know if it’s because she feels that her situation has reached a desperate situation and she has to take this gamble, or if Wen Qi has also been deceived by the person who spread the news and doesn’t know if the consequences of failure here will be so serious.
Zhao Yinglai was thinking about the contents of this world in his mind while observing the expression on Wen Qi's face, hoping to guess some clues from her micro-expressions.
"Yes, I wanted to try it this afternoon," Wen Qi nodded decisively, "but I didn't find this place."
"I just followed the others in."
"Do you know anyone else here?" Zhao Yinglai asked puzzledly.
"It's not that I know other people," Wen Qi's face flashed a trace of unnaturalness, "I recognized them."
She turned around to look at the members of the Abnormal Investigation Bureau who were still discussing at the door, and carefully lowered her voice: "I saw two wanted criminals who had seen the wanted poster before. I thought the sneaky look of these two people was suspicious, so I followed them."
"Two wanted criminals...could they be a man and a woman?" Zhao Yinglai raised his eyebrows.
"...Yes," Wen Qi paused in surprise, "Brother Jiang Jie, have you seen them too?"
Zhao Yinglai: "More than just seeing it..."
She blinked and looked at Bai Jinshu: "Are these two people Fang Sha and Cai Hong?"
Did the clues really come to me?
"It's these two people." Wen Qi confirmed before Bai Jinshu could answer.
"Brother Jiang Jie," she said cautiously, "Do you know each other?"
Weren't they mixed up with the police who came to look for her at the beginning? Why did she know these two people?
"Not really acquaintance," Bai Jinshu looked at the members of the Abnormal Investigation Team who were still discussing what to do next outside the door, turned around and sat in the rattan chair, facing the stool in front of him, raised his chin and motioned Wen Qi to sit down as well, "We have a grudge."
"Oh..." Wen Qi blinked and made a zipper gesture on her mouth. "You came in to seek revenge on these two people. I understand. I won't tell anyone anything."
"We came in to look for someone else... Never mind," Zhao Yinglai explained casually and brought the topic back to the point, "Tell me in detail how you met them first?"
As for why Cai Hong Fangsha was bumped into by Wen Qi, she was actually not very surprised.
Wen Qi originally came here to find a substitute, and Cai Hong and Fang Sha also came here for this matter. It is normal for these three to meet.
The first time Cai Hong and Fang Sha met them was at night when they smashed the window of the pharmacy and kidnapped Chang William in order to find something to eat.
The wanted posters of the two worlds are not interoperable, and they are hiding from people in this world as well, which means they must be wanted in this world as well.
These two were outlaws before they came in. After entering another world, they would naturally get used to solving problems in the way they are best at. If they had not done anything, how would they know that people in this world would not die?
Therefore, these two people must have killed someone in this world. When they found out that they would not die, the direct accusations from the victims also made them wanted in another world.
Later, the two men met members of the Abnormal Investigation Bureau who came from another world to look for someone. They thought that these policemen were here to arrest them, so they simply pushed Skao, whom they met by chance, out to be a scapegoat and took the opportunity to run away.
At least one day has passed since they pushed Scaro out to be a scapegoat until this afternoon. If they wanted to run away, they would have done so long ago. How could they be met by the exploration team? It could only be that these two were tripped up by something.
Scaro guessed that the death row prisoners entered this world in order to find substitutes, which would be the reason why these two people gave up escaping and chose to stay where the police from the two worlds were searching for them. The only answer they found was related to the substitutes.
No matter what, Wen Qi will definitely meet these two people.
She originally came here to find a substitute to replace herself. On the first day she entered here, she didn't know what this world was like and was still in the exploration stage. At night she met Bai Jinshu and the others and learned what this world was like. She would definitely start to act the next day.
But she didn't find the replacement on her own, but by tracking two wanted criminals...
"Before I came here, I didn't find out how to find a substitute after entering another world, so I used a stupid method and memorized all the photos on the wanted list. I planned to improvise after coming here and follow the wanted criminals who came in. I should be able to find some clues," Wen Qi said while recalling, "I had already searched the east side of the building where I entered yesterday, so I planned to try my luck in other places today and see if I could find any wanted criminals to follow."
I have read several discussions in the barrage:
[Fuck, what a stupid idea this is. How is it stupid? Wen Qi is quite smart.]
[How can you be so smart? You dare to follow a wanted criminal. Aren't you afraid of something happening? ]
[She is brave. If Wen Qi wasn't brave enough, she wouldn't dare to come to this world alone to find a substitute, right? ]
[Why was she so pale when she met Aoshen and the others on the first day? ]
[She is afraid of ghosts. The elevator game didn't mention that there are other people in this world. I guess she thinks that only intruders are human in this world, and the others are ghosts.]
As for how Wen Qi met Cai Hong and Fang Sha, it was because she had seen the photos on the wanted poster. Although the two of them had disguised themselves in this world, she still saw through them.
Cai Hong and Fang Sha, who had just escaped from the police, were exhausted both physically and mentally. They had no time to hide their whereabouts and were seen by Wen Qi who was passing by.
Wen Qi followed the two men quietly. She was brave and careful, and the two men had just experienced a chase and relaxed their vigilance after reaching the safe area, so she actually caught up with them.
"I followed the two men all the way to a warehouse area and watched them sneak into a warehouse. After noting the warehouse number, I planned to come back at night and wait until they left during the day to check in," Wen Qi shrugged. "Then, after I got to the street, I ran into other people who came to see me and they took me back to the pharmacy."
Wen Qi found clues related to the substitute, and heard a familiar name in their conversation. She confirmed that this group of people were the ones who came to find her last night as mentioned by Scarao. So she didn't run away, but came back to put on a show in front of Xu Ke.
Zhao Yinglai touched his chin and said, "So you don't know where that place is?"
No wonder when Bai Jinshu called out the word "substitute", Wen Qi came in and led the way so quickly. It turned out that she had only found a little bit of the way and just followed to the door.
"No," Wen Qi retorted confidently, "That place must be related to the stand-in, otherwise why are they sneaking around? They are not wanted in this world, so can't they show up openly?"
"That's not necessarily true..." Zhao Yinglai rubbed his face thoughtfully, "Why do I feel that place is more like the hiding place of those two people?"
Wen Qi didn't know that these two people were also wanted by the people in this world, so she thought she had found clues related to the substitute.
"It doesn't matter," Bai Jinshu raised his eyebrows, "Anyway, isn't our purpose to find someone?"
Besides, these two people are still here. They must have found clues related to the substitute, and we won’t be able to get anything out of them by then.
"That's true..." Zhao Yinglai thought about it and gradually rubbed his hands, "How about we go now?"
As early as yesterday when these two guys tricked them, she wanted to catch them and beat them up.
"Wait a minute," Bai Jinshu looked at the Abnormal Investigation Bureau members who were about to leave the door, stood up and called out, "Xu Ke, are you ready to leave now?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" Xu Ke was arranging the division of labor later. Hearing this, he took the time to turn around and replied, "It's almost twelve o'clock. Doing these at midnight will have a higher success rate. If there is anything, wait for us to come back and tell us."
"I just want to ask if you want our help," Bai Jinshu said calmly, "There is strength in numbers. We can try to help you tonight."
"Thank you very much. Some psychic games require more people, and we don't have enough people," Xu Ke said, without any time to be polite. "How many people can you provide?"
Bai Jinshu looked at the exploration team members standing aside.
"Can I help you experiment in the early morning to see if I can use the supernatural game to go back?" Tang Ling asked.
"Let's try this method tonight," Xu Ke pinched his nose with a headache, "The success rate of supernatural games is actually very low. If this doesn't work, we can only try to walk out of the borders of this city."
The door they used to get back was destroyed, so naturally they had to make more attempts.
"Then I can do it for now. Just let me be back before one o'clock." She nodded.
If Tang Ling can do it, Qiu Zihan can do it too.
The rest of the people discussed in a low voice and decided that, except for Bo Jiren who needed to get up early, the remaining six people could help the Abnormal Investigation Bureau find a way out.
After all, if we can find a way to leave here other than the supernatural game, that would definitely be one of the rules.
Bai Jinshu naturally interrupted their conversation, intentionally dispersed the exploration team members into three or four teams, and listened to Xu Ke's distribution details. By the time Xu Ke finished the distribution again, everyone set off separately. He had already constructed a complete distribution map in his mind.
Most ghost games require a venue, such as the thirteenth step when crossing a bridge, the elevator above the fifteenth floor required for the elevator game, and the four-corner game that requires a room.
The plan of these exploration team members is to find suitable places to try these games, hoping that similar supernatural games in this world can send them back to another world.
It is unclear whether this method will work, but Bai Jinshu tends to think it will not.
If these were really two independent worlds, it would be fine, but this is the underworld, and they came from the world of the living. I have heard of people in the world of the living using some methods to enter the underworld, but I have never heard of anyone being able to use these methods to go back again from the underworld.
The only effective way is probably to fall into the trap. The police in the underworld are hunting down intruders and controlling the places they enter. This is probably to send these souls that shouldn't enter the underworld back to the world of the living, and by the way, to plug the loopholes that allowed them to enter here.
But Wen Qi is still useful now, so Bai Jinshu naturally cannot tell them how to leave.
Huai Jiamu was still in a coma. After Xu Ke left a team member to look after the captain, he led his team to the place where they were going to experiment with the supernatural game.
As these people left one by one, Bai Jinshu and Zhao Yinglai also planned to leave.
"Brother Faye," Wen Qi had already seen that the purpose of their trip seemed not to be a substitute, but these two people, "Are you two going to take action later?"
"When..." Zhao Yinglai was interrupted by Bai Jinshu before he could finish his words.
"Of course not," Bai Jinshu smiled, "We are law-abiding citizens, how could such a thing happen?"
"Then you guys..." Wen Qi blinked.
"We are concerned citizens. We are going to the address you provided to report the fugitive." Bai Jinshu stood up, shook the windbreaker that was placed beside Huai Jiamu's bed, put it on, and walked straight to the door.
How could he not be there to witness when someone wanted to take Huai Jiamu's life and get rid of A Lian and A Yuan who were causing trouble?
"Hey," Zhao Yinglai smelled a pungent smell of blood as soon as he picked up the clothes, "That one has blood——"
"I know." Bai Jinshu waved his hand without even turning his head. "Let's go."
Regardless of whether these two people did it intentionally or unintentionally, he held the blame for Huai Jiamu's injury on them.
[Oh, these two are on their own, God Ao is going crazy. ]
【Why are you so mad? 】
[The one in front, because Aoshen has mysophobia, but there is blood on that piece of clothing...]
[He even wore bloody clothes. He must have been pissed off by these two people's backstabbing.]
[…I thought Aoshen was wearing this because he was pretending to be injured by the police.]
【Ah? Oh, that's right.】
[Oh, right? Aoshen should pretend to be injured...]
[Then why did he pretend to be injured? Wen Qi and Jiang Jie could do the same, right? ]
[Wen Qi can't go. That team member stayed behind just to see her and told her not to run away.]
【What about Jiang Jie? 】
[It's obvious that Jiang Jie is not tall enough, and the clothes don't fit him.]
【……】
[The most insulting episode.]
【The episode with the most serious height bullying. 】
[The Immortal knew that he would become 2.8 meters tall when he transformed. ]
…
"Are you trying to coax Wen Qi?" Zhao Yinglai quickly caught up.
She was skeptical about the fact that Skaol was a law-abiding citizen.
"Of course not." Bai Jinshu glanced at her, "I really intend to report their hiding place to Xu Ke and the others."
There was no way Skao could do it himself.
"Then..." Zhao Yinglai blinked, "Do an experiment?"
Didn't Scario want to use these two people to experiment whether they would die if they revealed the underworld?
"I thought you were going to tell these two people the key information directly and wait for them to tell you?"
"Do I think I'm not dying fast enough?" Bai Jinshu glanced at her speechlessly. "Of course, we have to let these two people speak out when they are alone to ensure safety."
"When it's just the two of them..." Zhao Yinglai and Danmu asked curiously, "How did you control them so that they wouldn't tell us directly after they got the information, but waited until we left before telling us?"
[Yes, how to control it? ]
[Yes, how to control it? ]
[Yes, how to control it? ]
【Why are you all repeating the same grade? 】
[Because there seems to be nothing to say except repeating, can you guess how to control it? ]
On the screen, Skao said casually as he walked: "Because Fang Sha is obviously smarter than Cai Hong."
The reason why information is transmitted through language is because those who know the information need to inform those who do not know the information.
Fang Sha was previously imprisoned for fraud, and Cai Hong for robbery. The difference in their IQs can be seen from the charges, not to mention that in just two brief encounters, it was Fang Sha who led the conversation each time, and it was also Fang Sha who could tell that his identity was not simple, while Cai Hong played a more supportive and supplementary role.
Considering that Fang Sha looks thin and has no muscles, it is most likely that Cai Hong was the one who did the murder and robbery, and Fang Sha was just an assistant.
In this small group of two people, Fang Sha is the brain and Cai Hong is the fist.
In such a combination, the brain has become accustomed to telling the fist when it gets new information, so he doesn't need to make any extra plans, Fang Sha will definitely spread the news that this is the underworld.
The only thing that required some planning was how to get Fang Sha to avoid the two of them and only tell them when she and Cai Hong were alone.
Bai Jinshu already has an idea on how to do this step.
In fact, most of the time, humans are animals that are driven forward by momentary emotions.
When they are emotional, they forget to think, abandon wisdom, and are driven by a single emotion to do what others want to see them do.
"They are already in place," Zhao Yinglai said as he walked while paying attention to the temporary group chat on his watch, "Brother Faye, do you think they can go back?"
"No." Bai Jinshu answered very directly.
Sure enough, as soon as twelve o'clock passed, various failure messages came in the group.
Tang Ling: [I failed on the thirteenth step. I didn’t succeed.]
Tang Ling: [But they are a little unwilling to give up and want to try a few more times. After all, the psychic game has a chance of success.]
Soon, Qiu Zihan followed up: [Our group also failed. ]
William Chang: [Neither do I.]
All three groups failed. It was probably impossible for Xu Ke to leave the underworld through the supernatural game.
Zhao Yinglai shrugged, looked at the code above the warehouse in front of him, stopped and lowered his voice: "Is this what Wen Qi was talking about?"
This should be the warehouse that Wen Qi saw Cai Hong and Fang Sha enter.
"How to do it?" She turned and looked at Bai Jinshu.
"We pretend to be chased by the police and run away to settle accounts with A Lian and A Yuan. Anyway, it's dark now and you can't see if I have any wounds on my body. You can only smell the blood." Bai Jinshu raised her chin towards her watch. "I'll post the real-time location of this place in the group and ask them to bring the police. The nearest team will be here in about half an hour. In this half hour, we just need to pretend that we saw them being chased by the police during the day, so we came here to settle accounts and inquire about the substitute's news."
Zhao Yinglai made an OK gesture and pulled out a dagger that he had prepared long ago: "I'll go in and explore the way first, you can come in when you are ready."
She turned around and jumped directly from the vent above. A few seconds later, there were several sounds of what seemed to be fighting in the warehouse, and finally Cai Hong's surprised voice: "Jiang Jie? Why is it you?"
"Why can't it be me?" Zhao Yinglai's voice was angry. "I knew I was not mistaken during the day. You two were indeed being chased by those cops!"
"Also?" Fang Sha's surprised voice sounded, "Have you been discovered by the police here?"
"Why are you pretending in front of me? Don't move, or I'll kill you," Zhao Yinglai snorted coldly, "Aren't the police chasing you today coming from another world to catch you?"
"How could that be? Don't get excited. Do you have a misunderstanding about us?" Fang Sha asked in surprise. "Are there police from another world coming to arrest us?"
It seems that she wants to play dumb to the end.
Bai Jinshu curled his lips and jumped out of the vent.
He was wearing the clothes that Huai Jiamu wore when he was injured. They smelled strongly of blood. As soon as he appeared in the warehouse, Cai Hong and Fang Sha smelled the pungent smell of blood.
"Skao?" Hearing the voice, Cai Hong shone the flashlight in his hand over. After seeing the face of the person, he was surprised. "How did you become like this?"
"Yeah, how did I become like this?" Bai Jinshu sneered at the two of them, "Isn't it all because of you?"
"Stop pretending." He took a deep breath and leaned against the wall, pretending to be exhausted after being injured. "You two deliberately tricked me out yesterday just to make me take the bullet for you and escape."
"Why," he raised his eyebrows sarcastically, "you're not running away now?"
"When did we trick you into going out?" Fang Sha straightened her face. "We were chased today because we were caught by the police once before, and they wanted to lock us up..."
"Come on," Bai Jinshu leaned back and slowly sat down against the wall, leaving a clear bloodstain on the wall. "Let's be frank. You could have escaped earlier but you didn't. Did you find the legendary substitute?"
Fang Sha's eyes flashed: "What substitute?"
"It's the thing that can sentence us to death," Zhao Yinglai lowered his head and lowered his voice to cooperate, "If we hadn't found clues about this, you would have run away long ago."
"Since you have cheated us once before, you should tell us the information and we will not care about it anymore," Bai Jinshu said as he sat by the wall, looking like he had given up. "Otherwise, we will tell the police that you are planning to make a substitute, and you will not be able to escape when you return to your world."
"Alian..." Cai Hong immediately looked at Fang Sha hesitantly.
"...Okay." Fang Sha looked at the knife that Zhao Yinglai was holding on her neck and gritted her teeth.
Scarao guessed correctly. If they hadn't accidentally discovered the matter of making a substitute, she and Cai Hong would have left long ago. How could they still be here?
When people are unlucky, even cold water can get stuck in their teeth. I was fine this afternoon, but who knew I would be targeted by the police.
If they were not more familiar with the terrain here than these policemen, they would have been caught by them.
They originally thought that they had escaped the police and returned to their temporary hiding place, the warehouse, and that the matter was over. Who could have thought that there would be a sequel in the middle of the night.
Although she had killed many people, this was the first time she was threatened with a knife by someone, and this person was someone they had cheated before.
Now, the person is not dead and has come to the door. Fang Sha feels uncomfortable when she thinks of this.
It was clearly only Skao and Bo Jiren who were tricked out that afternoon, so how come it was Skao and Jiang Jie who came here to find them tonight?
Look at Scario, he’s covered in blood...could it be that Bo Jiren is dead?
Then Chang William...is also dead?
They have met so many people, and now there are only these two left. Could they have been caught or died?
Countless guesses flashed through Fang Sha's mind, and she immediately planned to change her hiding place after they left: "After I tell you the news, you two leave immediately."
"Okay," Bai Jinshu agreed decisively, "First, tell us how you found it?"
"We're not actually very sure," Fang Sha said quickly, as if she was eager to send them away, "but we found a problem when we were leaving here. The edge of the city is all foggy."
"The edge of the city... is all foggy?" Zhao Yinglai subconsciously looked out the window of the warehouse, "Have you reached the edge of the city? What does it look like inside the fog?"
They had been in there for three days and had never tried to get out.
This city is so similar to cities in the normal world that they subconsciously think that this place is the same as the normal world. If they want to leave, they can take transportation from the edge of the city.
Now Fang Sha said that there is fog all around here, and it does give a sense of the reality of the underworld.
"What could it be? It's just fog..." Fang Sha said subconsciously, and then answered properly, "After leaving the city, there is a shallow beach under our feet, all water and sand. We were afraid of accidentally walking into deep water, so we kept looking within the shallow beach. There were many people walking in the fog, and we could vaguely see their shadows, but we couldn't get close."
"Water and sand..." Zhao Yinglai asked subconsciously, "Then did you see a bridge?"
Could it be that the edge of the city is the Forgotten River?
"Bridge? No," Fang Sha thought for a moment and explained, "The shoal is very large, it should not be a river. I am more inclined to believe that this city is an island."
Fang Sha and Cai Hong were originally planning to leave after tricking Skao, but when they reached the edge of the city they unexpectedly discovered these shadows.
Fang Sha, who came here originally to find a substitute, soon began to suspect the relationship between these shadows that could not be approached and the substitutes. Since the city in this world is no different from the normal world they live in except that people cannot die, and if they want to leave this city, they cannot get out of the fog, then the problem must be with these people in the fog.
Fang Sha and her team found a breakthrough, but they did not plan to leave immediately. Instead, they turned back and found a temporary stopover closest to the edge of the city. They planned to study these weapons carefully and try to find a way to make a substitute.
Who could have thought that when people are unlucky, even drinking cold water will get stuck in their teeth? They had just settled here when they were discovered by the police and had to struggle to escape while being chased by a group of policemen.
Who knew this was not the end yet, when they were escaping they were caught in the act by the people they had cheated before and they came to their doorstep.
Zhao Yinglai winked at Bai Jinshu.
Listening to this description, it seems that it is impossible for Fang Sha and Cai Hong to cooperate with Xiao Guo. The reason why they were discovered by the members of the Abnormal Investigation Bureau must be purely coincidental.
"Anything else?" Bai Jinshu asked Fang Sha.
“Nothing…” Fang Sha’s face was not looking good. “Not long after we discovered that there was fog on the edge of the city, we were discovered by the police.”
They also need sleep. The light is dim at night and the figures in the fog at the edge of the city cannot be seen clearly. They originally planned to go and have a look after getting a good sleep during the day, but they were discovered by the police and chased for an entire afternoon.
"Do you have any other questions? If not, then leave now." She looked at the knife on her neck and asked, "Can you put it down now?"
Zhao Yinglai gave Bai Jinshu an inquiring look.
Didn't they come here to do experiments? Now he's not going to reveal the information that this is the underworld?
Bai Jinshu looked at the temporary group chat:
Skao: [Are we there yet?]
Qiu Zihan: [We’re here, this is Warehouse No. 13, right? Brother Faye, I’ll bring my men in right away! ]
Skao: [No, someone will jump out and open the door later. Knock him out, then bring him in. I have something to say.]
The first person to arrive here was Qiu Zihan, which was of course arranged by him on purpose. The team Qiu Zihan was in was closest to the location given by Wen Qi.
I don't mean anything else, it's mainly because Qiu Zihan is a bit stupid, even if he hears something, he won't think too much about it...
Bai Jinshu silently put down his watch and said to Fang Sha, "I can't go out."
Fang Sha:?
"I'm injured," Bai Jinshu said, leaning against the wall, lying without blinking, "It's easy to jump down from above, but it's impossible to get out from the bottom again."
Fang Sha took a deep breath: "...Then what do you want to do?"
"Open the door and I'll go out by myself." Bai Jinshu raised his chin towards the warehouse door and stood up with one arm.
"Alian?" Cai Hong looked over.
"Open, open, open." Fang Sha didn't want to argue anymore.
Anyway, after Scaro and the other two leave, they will also leave here, so they can just open a door.
Besides, Scario is so injured now, with blood all over his body. It’s not certain whether he can avoid the things on the street and survive after he goes out.
"The door was locked from the outside..." Cai Hong studied the door for a moment and said in embarrassment, "Shall I go out and open it?"
They originally chose an abandoned warehouse, the door of which was chained from the outside, and they all entered through the ventilation vent.
Fang Sha nodded silently, and Cai Hong flipped out nimbly.
After a few minutes, the door of the warehouse was pushed open a crack, and the moonlight outside shone in. Fang Sha hurriedly urged: "Okay, you can go now..."
Before he finished speaking, Qiu Zihan, who had knocked out Cai Hong according to Bai Jinshu's instructions, pushed the door open and walked in: "Brother Fa Ye, I brought the person in."
"What do you mean?" Fang Sha's face suddenly turned ugly. "Skao, what do you mean? We all came here to find something. Are you going to kill us?"
Her first reaction was to rob the thieves.
In front of him, Skao, who was so badly injured that he couldn't even stand up, suddenly stood up steadily under the moonlight, without looking injured at all: "You are wrong, we are not 'everyone' like you."
Fang Sha's expression suddenly turned very bad: "You are not injured at all?"
How does Scaro look like he's injured?
"Yeah," Scario sounded in a good mood. He walked up to Fang Sha with a smile, "I have to thank you again."
"What are you thanking me for?" Fang Sha said in a cold tone.
"Thank you for pushing me out to block the gunfire. Otherwise, how could I have gotten in touch with the police outside," the long-haired young man lowered his head and leaned close to her ear, his voice floating, "If I hadn't gotten in touch with the police, how could I have known the dangers of this world and that I couldn't stay here for more than seven days, otherwise I would never be able to go back."
"You are in contact with the police..." Fang Sha's eyes widened suddenly and she began to struggle.
Each of the shadow puppets that Zhaoying brought had extraordinary strength. Fang Sha just struggled a few times before being pinned down by her again.
"Yeah, after all, I am not you." Skao tilted his head slightly, "You are wanted criminals with solid evidence and only need to be arrested, but I don't have that."
He blinked slightly and said nonchalantly, "I am a Chinese who was born abroad. I have a rich family background, have been knighted, and have a good relationship with the local royal family. My friends are all people I met abroad. Even if we are caught, we will be dealt with according to the territorial principle because of our special identities. Didn't William Chang say all this? You don't think he is just bragging, do you?"
"So after I found out that you guys had sold me out, I immediately reached a cooperation with the police. The police told me that I couldn't stay in this world for more than seven days, otherwise I would not be able to return immediately. I was responsible for luring those of you who had escaped to this world for them, and by the way, helping them find out what was going on in this world."
"Thank you for your generosity, young lady," he said, performing a courtly salute. "Now that we know where you make your substitutes, our task will be much easier."
Fang Sha felt a mouthful of blood stuck in her throat.
"But you don't have to be so angry," Bai Jinshu said, changing the subject, "You won't live much longer."
"You didn't forget, did you? One, two, three, four, five, six. You've been here for six days already." He pretended to count on his fingers. "You'll die after seven days here. After tomorrow, you'll disappear from here."
Fang Sha suddenly widened her eyes, and a real feeling of suffocation suddenly descended upon her.
At this moment, she suddenly felt that death had become a substantial concept, from an abstract word to the future that was about to befall her.
"I wish you peace." Bai Jinshu smiled and tapped her heart from a distance. He took off the blood-soaked clothes on his body and put them on his wrist, then turned and walked out.
The blood had already stained his white shirt, and in the evening breeze and moonlight, his departing back looked particularly bright red.
"Why did you provoke him?" Zhao Yinglai sighed as he watched the team members file in. He let go of Fang Sha and let her fall to the ground. He squatted down and whispered the last straw, "If you hadn't tricked him, we wouldn't be cooperating with the police now to help them find the truth about this world where fugitives have escaped from crime."
Fang Sha sat on the ground, stunned for a few seconds, and suddenly laughed out loud: "I know!"
The entire warehouse was suddenly filled with her laughter.
"Know what?" She saw Skao look back blankly.
"Ha," Fang Sha said with a mocking smile on her face. She sat on the ground and laughed so hard that she fell backwards. "You are a foreigner, you are a foreigner!"
"What do you mean?" He frowned.
"Foreigners... foreigners! You are all foreigners!" Fang Sha pointed at him and burst into laughter. "I know, I..."
Before she could finish her words, Zhao Ying interrupted her with a knife.
"I'll leave the person to you," she waved to the team members behind Qiu Zihan, "Brother Faye and I came here to experiment with the psychic game. Unexpectedly, we ran into the wanted criminal you described, so we subdued him."
The team members were not clear about the situation and nodded.
"What did she mean by foreigners just now?" someone asked curiously.
"I don't know," Zhao Ying said, trying to pass on the blame. "She is discriminating based on nationality. She is discriminating against our Faye brother because he is a Chinese citizen of France."
Fang Sha and Cai Hong were all knocked unconscious. The Abnormal Investigation Bureau team members finished up the mess faster than ever before. Zhao Yinglai hummed a song as he walked over to Bai Jinshu: "Is that enough?"
"Okay." Bai Jinshu nodded.
【How come it's all right? What happened? 】
[I don't know, I was confused when I watched it later, is there anyone with a good brain who can explain it to me? ]
What does "foreigner" mean?
【First, rule out discrimination based on Fang Sha’s nationality. 】
[Thank you, if you hadn't ruled it out I would still be kept in the dark. ]
[So what does it mean? ]
The meaning is actually very simple.
Bai Jinshu looked at Qiu Zihan, who also had no idea what was going on, and the two people who had already fainted.
He just took advantage of a small blind spot -
The seventh day after the death of a deceased person is a unique funeral culture in China.
As a person who was born and raised in France, it was impossible for him to know about this culture, let alone connect it with the underworld the moment he learned about it.
In fact, at that moment, the information "The Seventh Day" that popped up in his mind was not from Skao's knowledge reserve, but from Bai Jinshu.
It was Bai Jinshu himself who connected the seventh day with this place and deduced the truth of this world.
So the French Chinese "Skao" was in the dark. Although he knew the most important information, he was unable to piece together the truth here. Instead, he talked too much, allowing Fang Sha to piece together the truth by accident.
Fang Sha laughed sarcastically, mocking the police for working with a group of foreign Chinese and missing the message.
She thought she knew the truth, so when she woke up, she found herself and Cai Hong being held in solitary confinement. Out of hatred for Skao's betrayal and the arrogance after discovering the truth, as the "brain" of the group, she was used to explaining everything to the "fist". She also needed to find someone to share with as soon as possible, or show off her wisdom, to release her sense of superiority over Skao in advance.
She will definitely tell Cai Hong the news.
Then--
Bai Jinshu narrowed his eyes slightly and finally revealed his first genuine smile of the evening.
Then the next day, they could open the door and see whether the two men were detained or died immediately after giving the information as they expected.
Skao has always advocated returning the favor in kind and giving an eye for an eye. Huai Jiamu was seriously injured by Xiao Guo's betrayal, so Fang Sha will also die from the betrayal of the person she trusted.
To die of her spite, her wisdom, her arrogance.
This is the most perfect revenge.
In the evening breeze, Bai Jinshu smiled and sighed.
In fact, humans are animals that are driven forward by momentary emotions most of the time.
The moment he turned around, Fang Sha also became an emotional animal.
